7 footer in Wheeling

The skeleton remains of an Indian were dug up at Wheeling, Vt., a few days ago. From the enormous size of the skull, his thigh bones, and other parts of the human frame, its is thought that he could not have been less than seven feet high. Most of the remains crumbled to pieces upon being exposed to the air.
